Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>The United States has imposed movement restrictions in Kisumu as the country awaits the presidential petition verdict on Monday.<\/p>\n

The court is expected to give a judgement on September 5 on whether to nullify the win of William Ruto as president-elect or to uphold it.<\/p>\n

In an advisory on Thursday, the US said the ruling might occasion post-election violence.<\/p>\n

” Election-related demonstrations and rallies regularly take place after elections, at times blocking key intersections and causing traffic jams,” the US said.<\/p>\n

“Demonstrations may occasionally be violent, requiring police intervention. Strikes and other protest activities related to economic conditions occur regularly.”<\/p>\n

The US said out of an abundance of caution, the U.S. Embassy has imposed movement restrictions on U.S. government personnel in Kisumu.<\/p>\n

” The State Department reminds U.S. citizens of the continued need for sustained vigilance,” the US said.<\/p>\n
